1-month internal benchmarks

Each update that will introduce a significant change in the full-chemistry simulation is tagged with an alpha version in Git. For each of these alpha versions, the GCST runs an internal 1-month benchmark simulation to isolate the impact from that update.

For more details on the update(s) included in each alpha version and a link to benchmark results, see this Google sheet.

Overview
Below we summarize the notable changes caused by specific updates. See also the internal benchmark results which isolate impacts from specific updates. 1. Add MO2 + NO3 reaction Global mean OH changed by 0.4%; MO2 and NO3 concentrations decrease and NO2, CH2O, and HO2 concentrations increase as expected. See plots and tables documenting the changes from this update here. 2. Revision to a rate constant for the C2H4 scheme Global mean OH changed by -0.02%. Most species show <1% change in global mass. There are larger changes in ETO, ETP, GLYC, GLYX, HCOOH, and SOAGX as may be expected by changing the ETO reaction rate. See plots and tables documenting the changes from this update here. 3. Fix product in HOBr/Cl + S(IV) reactions Differences from this fix are very small. Global mean OH changed by -0.0008%. Differences in all species are < 1% except for SO4s which decreased by -99.984% (as expected because we're removing its production by HOBr and HOCl). See plots and tables documenting the changes from this update here. 4. Fix molecular weight of CH4 This fix introduces very small differences due to changing CH4 molecular weight. Global mean OH changes by 0.0007%. Changes in global mass for all species is << 1%. See plots and tables documenting the changes from this update here. 5. Bug fix: Treat SO4s and NITs as coarse aerosol in wet scavenging This fix produces large changes in SO4s, NITs as expected . NITs changed by -26.12% and SO4s changed by -57.31%. All other species changed by <1% exept for ClNO2 (+2.3%). Global mean OH changed by -0.013%. See plots and tables documenting the changes from this update here. 6. Bug fix for determining predominant land type per grid cell This fix produces small differences as expected. Global mean OH changed by -0.00028% and all other species concentrations changed by << 1%. The differences are mainly at high latitudes. See plots and tables documenting the changes from this update here. 7. Adaptive chemical solver (as option) / KPP 3.0.0 Differences are on the order of numerical noise. OH changes by -0.00015%. Bob wrote, "I have verified that using the rosenbrock_autoreduce integrator with 5 and 8 cores gives identical results. But using rosenbrock_autoreduce vs. rosenbrock (even w/ the autoreduction option turned off) will result in small numerical differences, probably due to different code under the hood being optimized differently. I think this is OK and not a bug." See plots and tables documenting the changes from this update here. 8. Retire land-water-ice (LWI) input field GCHP changes are due primarily to the snow fix. The GCClassic changes are much bigger than GCHP and this is caused by going from the pre-processing LWI method to online. This update causes changes mainly near coastlines and over oceans. Ocean emissions of ACET, ALD2, DMS, ETNO3, MENO3 show changes <10% (GCClassic only). NO ship emissions change by ~1%. Lightning and soil NO also change slightly (GCClassic only). See plots and tables documenting the changes from this update here. 9. Fix double-titration of seasalt alkalinity This update impacts SALAAL and SALCAL as shown in these comparison plots from Becky Alexander. SO4s also increases drastically. Global mean OH changes by 0.0071%. See plots and tables documenting the changes from this update here.
